I am looking at taking out the roadside policy with the RAC for £34.50 for the year. It says that if they can’t fix your vehicle at the roadside they will tow you to the nearest approved garage. My question is…. do they fix your car for free or do you get a big bill…

I need to buy breakdown recovery, going for either The AA or RAC, but I’m confused as to which cover I should get? Is it practical to go for the most basic option of just getting roadside assistance when I breakdown or should I be going for all the added options too? Really want to…

Hi, I have got 14-year old car and it is not reliable anymore… I am thinking about buying a brekdown policy "just in case". Obviously AA, RAC etc. are the top ones but also not the cheapest ones. Is there any risk when you buy a breakdown policy from a smaller company, not that well…

If you have at home cover they should get your car working to enable you to drive it to a garage or they take it there for you, speak to your insurance first if you’ll be claiming it from them, you may need to go to a garage they recommend.

They aren’t being stupid, they are a breakdown organisation, not a maintenance one. Go and get it fixed. If you keep calling them about a problem you’ve made no effort to get sorted out they are going to wash their hands of you eventually.

I believe all breakdown services have rules.
The one above is on reoccurring faults.
It seems you can call them on a problem once but not again and again on the same problem.

You can only call the breakdown service you are paying for, so as you are with the RAC they are the only ones to call. Maybe you need to call a local repair shop/garage. They should help and collect your car too.

Have you "broken down" ?
no
Your car is in need of maitenance, the RAC is not a maintenance insurance.
Just because you don’t agree with them it does not make them very stupid.
edit:
"Dude is paying £88 a year for this, they should at least have a lookie"
not true at all, they should have a look when the car breaks down.
I can see whats going to happen. You’ll phone them and tell them its broken down, when they arrive it will miraculously have started adn you’ll get him to look at it anyway.
Take responsiblity for your own car and get it serviced.
